2 Manual Transmission problem

Failure Date: 09/12/1998

Truck would not shift into 3rd gear, this did not occur all time. The check engine light came on several times. Was told to ignore the light and should only be concerned if the light was flashing. They ajusted the throttle pressure cable. It seemed to take care of the problem for approx 1 week. Then the problems started again. This time it still would not shift properly and now it was bogging out. I was attempting to pull out into traffic and as I stepped on the gas the truck just bogged out. It would not shift into the proper gears. I drove back to the dealer, the check the truck and said the something was wrong with the trani, would not let me drive vehicle, given rental.

When manual transmission is in 1st gear it will roll backwards, cause unknown. Please give any further details.
